Hey folks. See that cool picture above this text? I sure made it. I want to thank all the people who made that image possible, including myself. Now, as you can see, this post is about mentioning a few sites, and the writers of those sites, and maybe some of the articles that are on those sites. This is good because I can then comment on some of the material I have seen around the World Wide Web Internet Association.
I will jump right into it because introductions are not in my repertoire.
I usually only mention newer sites, but this time I will mention any sites that seem to fit. Also, based on past times mentioning newer sites, a good chunk of them were gone after a few months. Not all sites seem to “make it”, but you don’t have to worry about that here at Timeless Information, because I was communicating about and reading the type of material I write about here long before this site was created, so it is not like this is some stretch of my mind that I can’t keep up. Long live staying true to your thoughts.
From Bottom Up
One site that comes to mind is From Bottom Up, which is written by Hulbert Lee. Lately, Hulbert was writing about many big shots like Donald Trump and Bill Gates, and discussed what they bring to the table, and what their background is about. Now, he has transitioned over to writing about other site-writers who are making a name for themselves through their writings. This is cool because he has analyzed the famous and now finds out information about the not-yet-so-famous.
Also, as a smooth transition, Hulbert recently did an interview of the writer on the next site I will mention here.
Prolific Living
That site is Prolific Living, and it is written by Farnoosh Brock. Most people don’t read much at all. Farnoosh not only reads, but reads books including those that are longer and deeper than most consider themselves capable of reading. These are the classics like Anne Karenina and Jane Eyre. The reviews she provides of these books do not really contain spoilers, as they describe the style of the author and the texture of the writing(I wanted to use the word texture there), along with some takeaway messages.
Aside from writings about novels, you can find information about tasty juices or foods you can make, or find out interesting information from Farnoosh’s travels. The site is booming with material and it is very detailed and conversational. Farnoosh is full of energy and it shows through all that is on the site.
Cultivating The Mind
The last site I want to mention here is Cultivating The Mind, which is written by Martin, as I see it as up-and-coming. It has an altered look from the last time I saw it, which is good. Martin looks at X or Y or Z, and analyzes it, and then you get to hear that analysis. One example is his article where he discusses the deep meaning from the movie Avatar. In this article, Martin discussed the deep meaning and then added extra points and also included further reading.
Martin’s analysis often includes quotes from one source or another, and he injects his thoughts in all over the place. The mind is cultivated on Cultivating The Mind.

To land home from LA flights and read this takes my exhaustion away……(so now I am fully of energy again, see Armen?
)! Thank you thank you not only for mentioning Prolific Living but for promoting READING of CLASSICS, which is my passion!! Reading is the best exercise to keep our minds sharp, focused, clear and YOUNG!
Thank you again, Armen my friend, for your very kind and nice surprising mentions of Prolific Living…..

Hi Farnoosh.
Wonderful material. I’m all about creating surprises, at times.
The folks that absorb your message about the value of reading will take it and use it to energize themselves to gain more knowledge, and those that don’t might have an alternate plan, not that I’d agree with it.
For some reason I need coffee right now… I want it! Thanks Armen for linking to my site and sharing this other information. I am going to check out Prolific Living and Cultivating The Mind now. Thanks, and when am I going to get the chance to interview the almighty Armen?

Hi Hulbert.
Good stuff there and our interview went smoothly. FBU popped up in my mind and so I saw it as fitting for this creation. Your consistency is easy to take note of.
Wow!
Thanks Armen, your kind words are very encouraging. Considering my writing and blog are very much a work in progress and still so rough around the edges. I am still learning the ropes, but I do enjoy writing Cultivating the Mind.
Reading your blog, I can see that you are a very generous person by the time you spend answering everyone in the comments. That alone has taught me something about what it means to write a blog, it’s a big part of why I find your blog so interesting, along with the topics you choose and the comments from you and the readers. Your an inspiring writer.
Thanks again Armen, your compliments are very encouraging.
I am going to spend some time and take another look at you other recommendations.

Hi Martin.
Glad to mention your creation. I sure don’t see it as rough“
I sort of see the comments as an opportunity to fill in the gaps in what I said in the article, or to find out more, or to see if I was over-the-top, or whatnot, so it is something I am usually glad to jump in on. I somewhat imagine someone sitting next to me and saying something, and if I didn’t respond, that would be awkward and a missed opportunity. I could do more, though.
Glad for Martin all up in this place.

As for Hulbert, I like his blog… At first glance you can see that he is very dedicated guy and that posts are very unique…
For Prolific Living I find out recently… It seems interesting, but I did not have enough time to explore deeper, so I will not comment on it, yet.
Cultivating the Mind I found here in this post… I read an article, it appears that Martin write clearly and he is good at analyzing things…
All in all, I learned something new…

Hi Marko.
Hulbert sure is dedicated and he has been rolling smoothly.
Prolific Living is a fine source of energy and positive influence.
Cultivating The Mind is a place for a certain perspective on what others see.
Glad you checked out these folks setups and always glad to hear from you.
Armen: Nice picture design:) I couldn’t agree more. These are all great sites and I am fan of them all. They are a part of my RSS Reader. Thanks for always passing along great recommendations.

Hi Sibyl.
Thanks about the picture design. Sometimes I get some energy for creating cool material and bam there it was. That’s cool that you already read these sites. I have provided you no new material here~ (except action picture)

Hi Marc.
I like to mention folks every so often. I sometimes forget that I can introduce current readers to people I enjoy or read from so that what I see can also be what they see.
I am glad to persist where it matters to me. Anywhere else would be like climbing down a ladder.
Armen,
I already know and love work of Hulbert! He does superb killer interviews!
I have to check out other two new cool bloggers. I love reading various topic novels so I think will like Farnoosh’s blog and Martin’s blog sounds intriguing with with Avatar’s deep meaning. I will check them out.
Thanks.

Hi Farouk.
Sounds about right there. When I do this, I am reminded of what kind of good material there is out there, and I am glad I get to show it to readers. Opening up our network is way better than closing it.
